Default White wheels...

My 96 TA is now in need of new tires so..i've ventured for the idea of white wheels with a nice polished lip. The car is a white on white vert. Anyone know of any wheels that are not 3000+ that I can do this with..max i'd probably spend is 1500..Looking for ideas. I had black ZR1's on it..looked nice but white with a nice chrome or polished lip would set it off big I think..

I could get some powder coated..Im leaning towards 18's or 18/19 combo. I've neglected her looks for too long. I need some badass wheels but can't seem to find any nice ones for our cars for a decent priced. I fell in love with some iForged, but of course, 6K shipped.lol

does your 1500 price including making them white (since there aren't a lot of white options out there)? you could get something like these:

then get them powder coated white.

my buddy had white speedlines on his LT1 TA before and the car looked great.

If you find something you want, I'd be glad to powder coat them white for you
